Ross Barkley

[GwladysBlue]

...Kone. Honestly, though, if we lose Ross and/or Rom I don't think it shows any flaws in Moshiri's project. To me it shows that Mosh is serious and unsentimental - if you are Everton, you are 100% Everton; if not, bugger off.

Dunno about that, Koeman himself has said his dream is to manage Barça...

Have we actually offered him a contract???

of course we are talking but the contract doesn't have to be in writing, talks with his agent have not been fruitful so a contract can not be written up yet.

If he goes, how much are we selling for?

At a rough guess, enough to replace him with Sigurdsson and have some money left to go towards other transfers.

I don't want Ross to leave. He's only 23 yet some on here talk about him as if his career is over and he's failed somehow. I would rather see us bring in three or four starting quality players to play alongside him (taking some of the creative pressure of off him) but that all depends on the funds available, doesn't it.

You know this how? Its all rumours and hearsay so far.

It will be interesting to see how the board spin selling Lukaku and Barkley, especially with Stones going last year.

Not that I'm overly bothered. Barkley is easily replaceable and I'm bored of the Lukaku saga.

Time to gut this squad of cowards and rebuild a winning team.

It's a shame but that's footy

Quite abit then as Swansea wouldn't let Sigurdsson go for cheap.

Exactly. He may not be playing at the level we have all hoped he'd reach, but Ross is currently our second highest scorer and has more assists this season than anyone else. Either we replace him with someone who "contributes" more, or we replace several players around him - either option costs significant money.

If we do let him go, it can't be for cheap otherwise we just limit our ability to refresh the squad.

The short time remaining on his contract is a real problem.

The buying club will have us by the balls if Ross is really determined to leave

How many clubs better than Everton would want Barkley? i don't think many to be honest, I don't buy the spurs rumour he wouldn't get into their side.

 

[MACCA75]

If Spurs do want him they can pay at least £35 million. They paid £30 million for Sissoko on the back of more than one apalling season.

I'll let Spurs know that mate.
